Queer As Folk.

in September of 2007, i started watching Queer As Folk. i put it in my Netflix queue on a whim, really. i had watched a few seasons of The L Word during the summer & i suppose i needed my homosexual fix. i enjoyed the first episode of QAF- lots of sex, lots of attractive males, what's not to like? i thought it might become my latest guilty pleasure.
OH, but i was so wrong.

after making my way through the first season, in very little time, i was completely IN LOVE with this show. i felt personally invested in the characters, i had a massive crush on Brian Kenny, and the season 1 finale MADE ME CRY. i don't ever cry in public & i never cry at movies/tv/etc. until now that is. and i didn't just get teary; no, i was BAWLING. oh my god, you just don't know how emotional it was!
and so, over the past few months, i have finished watching all 5 seasons. i managed to cry at every season finale, and several times throughout seasons 2 & 5. i went through a short period in November when QAF was all i could think about & everything i talked about referenced it. yeah, that was probably kind of annoying.

ANYWAY, i finally made it to the last episode of the last season a few days ago. i might have changed a few things about it, but all in all, it was a satisfying ending to my love affair with Queer As Folk.

THE END.
